<p>Objenesis was not written from scratch. It was the result of spotting duplication amongst
    other open source projects that were doing similar things and creating a best-of-breed solution.</p>

<p>Code from Objenesis was adapted from code from these projects:</p>

<ul>
    <li><strong><a href="http://xstream.codehaus.org/">XStream</a></strong></li>
    <li><strong><a href="http://jserial.sourceforge.net/">JSerial</a></strong></li>
    <li><strong><a href="http://easymock.org/">EasyMock</a></strong></li>
</ul>
